Several times there have been scenarios entering the final week where a team had to win by 'x' points to guarantee a playoff spot, but it never actually materialized because of won-loss results that day. To the best of my knowledge, it's never gone beyond winning percentage in common games.

I wouldn't want to be in center city after we lose a coin toss and have to miss the playoffs.....

"If it came down to both teams were even, talent-wise, I think the opponent's team would win if it came down to coaching. Andy Reid got out-coached in a lot of games, man, a lot of big games."

FWIW,

I think that the year we won the Div w Vermeil, we had to not lose by more than 21 points ore something at DAL to win the division. That last game at DAL, we were down more than 21 so at one point we would have lost the division, but then we came back to make it a division winning close loss!

Sorry pal, I was born during his last year here and can't reminisce with you.

It's also fun reminding Bills fans that if you were born the last year they won a playoff game, you can legally drink now.
